- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.

It's my personal opinion that having sex with a condom is worse than not having sex, and I'm not getting a vasectomy until I'm confident I never want kids. Their reversibility is dubious at best and it's not worth the risk if you aren't 100% sure. I'm pretty sure I'll never have kids, but I'm not even confident enough about how I'll feel a decade from now to get a tattoo... so making such a big choice is out of the question.
I'm happy to just not have sex with women who aren't on birth control. If you feel this is wrong, the solution is simple. We can just not have sex together. Problem solved.
With the way the world is going, reproducing is certainly a choice. But if it truly remains a concern, there is the option of freezing sperm.
I got a vasectomy and it has been amazing. Easily one of the best decisions of my life.
After hearing about embryos/eggs being misused, I can't trust my genetic material to some corporation. If I could do it myself that might be an option but hardware fails. I'd rather just keep my faculties intact and be discerning with who I have sex with.
That's a very fair concern, given the fuckery we've seen from corpos.
